Crafting new punishment for America's lowest-paid, most exploited workers
in its tradition of punishing the innocent and rewarding the guilty, the bush administration proposes its NEW, IMPROVED immigration plan...
W.T.F...!?!? illegal immigrants in the u.s., if they're lucky, earn roughly $12,000 per year, or $36,000 over three years, and that's gross, not net... so, the u.s. is asking them to pay a full 10% of their gross income in order to continue working for slave wages... if they're wanting to go THAT route, i suggest the EMPLOYER coughs up the money for the work permit... as for the fine and the process for becoming a legal resident, that's just plain viciously punitive...

The White House's draft plan, leaked last week, calls for a new "Z" visa that would allow illegal immigrant workers to apply for three-year work permits. They would be renewable indefinitely, but would cost $3,500 each time.
To get a permit and become legal permanent residents, illegal immigrants would have to return to their home country, apply at a U.S. embassy or consulate to re-enter legally and pay a $10,000 fine.
